The ultimate control over presentation can come from a desktop application. Everyone says desktop is dead, web is where everything should be now and in the future, and while I mostly agree, desktop will continue to serve very specific needs for a long time to come. That may be something to consider in light of not being happy with some of the results you've seen thus far with web based dashboard systems.

I've personally created a dashboard for my business which has all the metrics that I want to know about all areas of my business. It's still under development, but the idea is to narrow down to the metrics that will enable me to know how things are going, and then check into that area of the business if needed.

I'm personally using google spreadsheets for this dash board, not because I particularly like them, but because they are useful when multiple people in the company are adding data.

In terms of daily reports, i'm developing software which will send you a report from everyone in your company that reports to you with: A list of their priorities, a list of exactly what they did for the day, and how many hours they worked, and what percentage of time they worked on their priorities. The key being that it's one email sent once per day for your entire organization, so that you can see in one email 10 or 20 people, and it doesn't take so long because of the presentation/ organization of the information.

Ah – typical lovely Boulder weather, immediately followed by a day of snow. It’s 60 and sunny again.

I love Gist. So much that I'm one of the investors. It is one of the 14 daily tabs but it doesn't yet dealnwith some of the information that I want to ingest.

Have you tried Gist? It's awesome for this kind of stuff.
